Kevin Callan's Guide to Winter Camping will not only give you the confidence to try it, but you will continually be returning to reference the incredible wealth of knowledge within. - Traversing Blog

[Review of previous edition:] Offers instruction on just about everything from building a shelter in the backcountry and gear selection to first-aid and traveling with your gear stowed on a tobaggon that you pull. There's even a chapter on animal track and tree identification, with the bonus of the author's listing of BTUs per cord of firewood from the various tree species. You'll find tips and advice on things like the various types of shelter you can resort to, the use of traditional wood-framed snowshoes, and even how to pick good companions for heading out into the winter weather. It's an intriguing book in that it goes against our instant gratification approach to life, where we want life easy and easily attained. Going out into zero-degree weather with heavy snow is not an adventure many would choose willingly to pursue, and it can be overly challenging and even deadly for the novice. But it also can definitely be character-building and open a new, or greater, appreciation for nature and how we cope with it. - Kurt Repanshek, National Parks Traveler

[Review of previous edition:] If you've never been Winter Camping before then this book is the perfect chance to hop aboard and discover what it's all about... I highly recommend this book to anyone whether you are just curious about extending your camping season past the shoulder seasons to venturing out into the dense backcountry in the dead of winter. The personal tips from both Kevin and the contributors are well appreciated. This book will help you on your way to enjoying more of the year outdoors and hopefully you too will continue the social gathering online and in person with other campers to learn more and share your Winter Camping experiences. - Traversing Blog

Highly readable for folks snug at home or preparing for ice fishing, shelter building, or axe sharpening. Callan's mix of encouragement and safety-first practicality will be helpful to those planning winter outings. - Maggie Knapp, Library Journal

This book by Callan makes winter camping sound -- dare I say it -- fun. I love that the author eats well on his trips and suggests you can, too, by offering recipes such as Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quinoa Chili and No-Knead Garlic Rosemary Bread. There is lots of information on these pages and quick tips, checklists, and lots of pictures. - Lisa Day, Followsummer Blog
